Ehe alarming disease OF this
country is nervous debility and
prostration. It goes under.
many names but it is essen
tally the same complaint. :
Hospitals and private institu-
tons for nervous patients are
crowded. The average of life
in the United States is de.
creasing every year. Sudden
deaths from nervous collapse
among q1r business, profess
ional and public men are so
frequnt as scarcely to excite
remark. The majority of sui
cides, committed without APP
parens reason, or underso-called
depression Of spirits,'' are
really prompted by nervous
prostra4son, which is a fruitful
source Of insanity and crime
with all their grief and horror.
These facts are startling.
They threaten the very life Of
the nasion. They assal the
springs Of it's power and pros
p1rfsy. TAey wreck manhood's
strength and wonlan's useful
ness and beauty.
EVERY one should know the
causes What are they? The
answer is easy and terribly
plain: Our vicious personal
habits; CUR careless and lawless
eating aud drinking; the in
tense mental and physical strain
arising from our mad race after
money, position and influence;
the fears and struggles Of pow
erty; tbs use Of narcotics and
stimalants; our fashion of
turning day into night and
nighs inte day; and, briefly,
our desperate willingness to
pay any price for an hours
pleasure OF success. So we
burn life's candle at both ends
and ELL the lunatic asylums
and the g~aveyards.
The disease from which we
suffer and die is, in plain Eng
hah, NerroHa Dyspepsia, as it
is sestsd IN tie Nerves and In
the organs Of Digestion, Assim-
ilakion and !, Il triton. Healthy
digestion being iinpeled or des-
troyed, the whole body, nerves
included, is literally starvea;
even when there is no enact
alton TO tell the sad story.
Nervous prostration sends
out its warnings headache
In the morning; O persistent
dull haaviness or aching at the
base Of the brain; wakefulness;
loss of appetite and disgust with
food; Iosss Of melltal energy and
interest," In ordinary duties and
business; restlessness and anx-
iety without any assignable
reason; quotations; bad
breath; foul mucous on the
teeth; occasional giddiness;
papitstion Of the heart; sal
lowness Of the skin; coated
tongue and gradual failure of
strength and ambition.
The remedy is q total aban-
donment of the habits and GUS
toms which cause the disease
In each Individual case, and the
use Of Shaker Eut4act Of Roots
(Seigel's Syrup to cure the
mischief already done. This
greas rers<sy, prepared by the
Shaker Comm 1niiy Of MT. Leb-
anon, II. z, is especially adapt
ed 10 eradicate Nervous Dys-
pepsia. TO do this it acts
directly and gently but power
fully upon the 1isordered stom-
ach, liver and kidneys, restor-
ing their tone and vigor, pro-
noting the secretion Of bile, ex-
polling waste matters from the
system, and purifying the blood.
Upon the nervous system
Shaker E1tractiSeigel'sSyrup)
acts as q safe and wholesome
anodyne without the slightest
narcotic effect, and then leaves
the nerves to regain their nat
ural tone and strength through
its wonderful influence upon
the function Of nutrition.
It is safe to say more nerv-
GUS dyspeptics have been re-
stored by it from the depths
Of misery to q fresh enjoyment
of life end labor than by any
OF all other forms Of treatment
